The following topics provide descriptions of supplied extension and template examples. You can use these examples to learn how to use ACT:
Extension Versus Template
All supplied examples are extensions, regardless of their package labels. The package ACT Extension Examples provides extensions that ACT documentation specifically references and explains. Template packages provide additional extensions that you can expand and manipulate to create your own custom extensions. While a few of the extensions in the template packages are referenced and explained in ACT documentation, most are not. You can explore these additional extensions as they become applicable to your own extension creation objectives.
